Proceeding contribution from Lord Howard of Rising (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Thursday, 22 March 2007. It occurred during Debate on bill and Committee proceeding on Digital Switchover (Disclosure of Information) Bill.


Digital Switchover (Disclosure of Information) Bill

I support the suggestion of my noble friend Lord Astor that the National Audit Office should look at this matter. I talked about this earlier in another debate. I believe that spending £600 million helping the disadvantaged has absolutely nothing to do with editorial independence.
